"TIGER US Space Tech" ETF Sets Record for Largest Net Individual Purchases Among Passive ETFs on Listing Day

Initial Allocation Sold Out Within One Hour

Mirae Asset Global Investments announced on April 15, 2026, that the "TIGER US Space Tech" Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) set a new record for the largest net individual purchases among domestic passive ETFs on its first day of listing.

According to Mirae Asset Global Investments on the same day, the TIGER US Space Tech ETF recorded approximately 61.5 billion won in net individual purchases the previous day. This marks the highest amount ever for net individual purchases on the listing day of a domestic passive ETF.

The ETF was established at a scale of 30 billion won the previous day, and the initial allocation was completely sold out within the first hour of trading.

The TIGER US Space Tech ETF focuses its investments on 10 pure private space companies with irreplaceable competitive advantages, excluding traditional defense companies such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing. Notably, the ETF includes a rule allowing up to 25% allocation to SpaceX upon its future listing.

The portfolio is centered on leading companies in the new space era, such as Rocket Lab (approximately 23%), Intuitive Machines (17%), AST SpaceMobile (15%), and Redwire (15%). A representative from Mirae Asset Global Investments stated, "In particular, about 70% is allocated to the upstream segment, which is the core infrastructure of the space industry, including launch vehicles and satellites, so that the fund can directly benefit from industry growth."

Kim Namho, Head of Global ETF Management Division at Mirae Asset Global Investments, explained, "Investor interest was driven by the fact that this is the first ETF in Korea composed exclusively of pure US space companies, excluding defense firms." He added, "As the ETF can quickly reflect industry trends centered on private space companies, it is regarded as a highly sophisticated solution for investing in the US space industry."
